Well as some people know the bolt hole on the corsa c sri beam is an m14. This ment the rear coilover units i had wouldn't fit, so i pressed the old bushes out bought some steel tube the relivent size and cast my own polyurathene bushes.
I have also been cracking on with spraying bits while we have had some sun.

Well it won't be finished this year now as iv'e been let down with the welding.
Anyway i offered up the diffuser to see how i looks.
And to cheer myself up i cut and polished the passanger side and fitted the window and skirt as that side will be up against the wall for awhile.
